what is the charge for the postage on the flat box.

...there is one that is closest in size to a pizza box, which is what she ment :)

That is the

"Priority Mail Box Flat Rate Box-O-FRB2 Format 11-7/8" x 3-3/8" x 13-5/8" Minimum order: 1 pack of 10 ... No Charge"

Which is the info directly from the USPS.com order form. You can order them for free (min of 10, or pick one up at the PO for free).

It is almost square shaped, and flat...very like a pizza box :^)

They cost about $10.35 (that is the rate from stamps.com, but to be absolutely sure you can check using the rate calculator on USPS.com, it won't be much different) anywhere within the US.

International rates and box sizes are different.

Just a comment... the postal rates go UP as of May 11th so if you're using a flat rate box, check the USPS website to find out current rates for whatever size you're using. I got stuck like that once - how embarassing to have a swap arrive postage due or be late because it's returned to you! If I weren't going on vacation soon I would love to do this. Hope you do another!

Would you suggest to look at our partners profile and see what kind of yarn, color they need or prefer? or just send what we like?
